Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu's replacement of tourism minister Kevin Yeung aims to revitalize Hong Kong's tourism industry, which has struggled since 2018.
Challenges such as cultural dilution, increased competition from mainland China, and high costs have impacted the city's appeal to tourists.
The government’s recent initiatives, including mega-events and the "Let’s Go the Extra Mile" drive, have had limited success in boosting visitor numbers.
